Add a new tool which summarizes packet counts by protocols, but
organizes the protocols in the same hierarchical order in which
they are found in the packet.
The GUI needs some more refinement (placment of vertical
scrollbar, style of GtkCTree, initial sizing of window).
I need to add an option to honor/not honor the current display filter.
